Actually, it was someone called CeliacMe and here is what was going on:

I think around Post #74 onward is when I just lose it....... all the while, this is exactly the same time you were PM'ing me, just as I was doing an "IM OUTTA HERE!". That's why you only got one from me, but I passed the word on to make sure you were welcomed properly.....

Hugs.

Susan,

When you joined...you were going through alot...like so many of us. But NO...you were NEVER depressing. I think I met you right after you joined (we taked about C-diff :) )....and since then...good days and bad we've loved having you here. I dont think you could have possibly scared anyone off....especially with those cute dingo's always staring at us. ;)

Thanks Rach. I do remember telling you that one-third of people DIE from C. Diff - - felt bad about being the messenger of THAT news. :huh: Later thought - I should not have told you that (researcher that you are, you knew anyway). Holy over-analyzing, Batman......

Karen - actually wishing I hadn't mentioned anything. I have seen you be mostly attentive toward people. Anywho now I"ve created....more controversy?

will read the thread, in between watching Golden Globes. Yup, it's very cerebral over here tonight, folks. ;)

Hey Susan! No Problem! I just wanted to point out how misunderstanding can so easily occur and we sometimes have absolutely no clue what's going on "behind the scenes"......

The above noted thread was the straw that broke the camel's back though, and that's exactly the time you happened to PM me. But the real kicker (and the one that shows Celiachap in all his true glory) and the one that send me in search of "Moderator Nerve Pills", is this one (I had just finished dealing with this guy when the other thread started, and at that point, I HAD HAD IT!!! LOL!)

oh my gosh, I just read about three pages of that HEINOUS thread. That's a BAD one.

You know......it is astonishing....I joined on January 27th - the very day this was all going on. I can see why you took your "vacation" - - what a nasty thing that was. And here was sad little me - - with no IDEA in the world what was going on in YOUR world......

and all this time, I have mildly perceived that you thought I was a pest, or something.

This whole thing has been really eye-opening. I am....flummoxed! :huh:

Karen - I am feeling slightly tail-between-legs but also quite glad that's been cleared up. And you know what? I honestly couldn't tell you WHO interected with me in my earliest posts - it's all such a blur. I know all too well that the depressed person can take things very personally.

Hugs to you. I am glad that angry poster was banned.

Well, I for one adore eating paper towels and toilet paper. Being the sign of the goat it is natural for me to eat anything that doesn't eat me first. You should see me lust after the large packages of paper towels in costco. Yes, they have caught me many times passed out from "TTS (toxic towel syndrome)."

As for shampoos, it is usually us who get DH who have to worry about them they say, but I worry about being glutened if it drips in your eyes or mouth.

Now for my final thing that had me howling because I misread it was "Planters, dust their nuts with flour." Can you imagine what went through my mind? I envisioned people planting things and you surely can figure out the rest.

I know, I am sick.

:lol: Actually, I've had trouble with Planters nuts before, but I just lately found out what it was. I walked into the living room where the nuts were, and caught my hubby dipping into the nuts, he had just finished eating a sandwich! That's why I've had trouble with the nuts :o Needless to say, he won't be dipping into my nuts without washing his hands next time. :rolleyes:

Yes, I am licking my lips and staring longingly at a box of kleenex. If only I could reach them.

I have my heart set on dusting some nuts.

Has anyone seen Johnny Depp?

Tell your hubby that your nuts are out of bounds and if he wants to be grabbing nuts with flour-filled hands than he best get his own.

He's probably out partying with Keith Richards, discussing the next sequel to Pirates...... I hope they don't fall out of any coconut trees....... :ph34r::lol:

Coconuts are good, just don't dust them. I will wait below the tree to catch Johnny. Someone else can have Keith.

I had forgotten that doctor-hating thread. CeliacMe was just too angry to be rational. I assume that's why she was banned.

I remember both CeliacMe and CeliacChap. Both were people to avoid at the time. I do hope they have improved their personalities with the diet. They are probably nice people without a chip on their shoulders and without all the anger about getting this disease.

You came on just after all this went down......

He even came back to haunt us a few more times under different names, including masquerading as a woman. Was NOT a good time around then for me......... for some reason, he singled me out and unleased numerous personal attacks on me (and celiac3270 also.....).

I guess it takes all kinds to make the world go round..... <_<

I highly suspect they were....... Their writing styles were the same and both mentioned the same things a few times......

      Potential celiac need advice

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It seems like you have two choices--do a proper gluten challenge and get re-tested, or just go gluten-free because you already know that it is gluten that is causing your symptoms. In order to screen someone for celiac disease they need to be eating gluten daily, a lot of it--they usually recommend at least 2 slices of wheat bread daily for 6-8 weeks before a blood screening, and at least 2 weeks before an endoscopy (a colonoscopy is no used to diagnose celiac disease). Normally the blood panel is your first step, and if you have ANY positive results there for celiac disease the next step would be to take biopsies of your villi via an endoscopy given by a gastroenterologist.  More info on the blood tests and the gluten challenge beforehand is below: The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate. Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:   Not to discourage you from a formal diagnosis, but once you are diagnosed it may lead to higher life and medical insurance rates (things will be changing quickly in the USA with the ACA starting in 2026), as well as the need to disclose it on job applications. While I do think it's best to know for sure--especially because all of your first degree relatives should also get screened for it--I also want to disclose some negative possibilities around a formal diagnosis that you may want to also consider.

      Yes.  Now, if you hit your finger with a hammer once, wouldn't you do your best not to do it again?  You have identified a direct connection between gluten and pain.  Gluten is your hammer.  Now you have to decide if you need a medical diagnosis.  Some countries have aid benefits tgat you can get if you have the diagnosis, but you must continue eating a gluten-normal diet while pursuing the diagnosis. Otherwise the only reason to continue eating gluten is social. There are over 200 symptoms that could be a result of celiac disease.. Celiac Disease and Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity  both cause multiple vitamin and mineral deficiency.  Dealing with that should help your recovery, even while eating gluten.  Phosphatidyl Choline supplements can help your gut if digesting fats is a problem,  Consider that any medications you take could be causing some of the symptoms, aside from gluten.

      Welcome to the forum, @Ben98! If you have been consciously or unconsciously avoiding gluten because of the discomfort it produces then it is likely that your blood antibody testing for celiac disease has been rendered invalid. Valid testing requires regular consumption of generous amounts of gluten. The other strong possibility is that you have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which shares many of the same symptoms with celiac disease but does not have the autoimmune component and thus does not damage the small bowel lining. It is 10x mor common than celiac disease. There is currently no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out. Some experts in the field believe it can be a precursor to the development of celiac disease. Having one or both of the primary genes for developing celiac disease does not imply that you will develop active celiac disease. It simply establishes the potential for it. About 40% of the population has the genetic potential but only about 1% develop active celiac disease.

      TTG blood test and total IGA tested on many occasions which have always remained normal, upper GI pain under my ribs since 2022. I had an endoscopy in 2023 which showed moderate gastritis. no biopsy’s were taken unfortunately. genetic test was positive for HLADQ2. extreme bloating after eating gluten, it’ll feel like I’ve got bricks in my stomach so uncomfortably full. the pain is like a dull ache under the upper left almost like a stitch feeling after a long walk. I am just wanting some advice has anyone here experienced gastritis with a gluten issue before? thank you

      "Conclusions: The urinary iodine level was significantly lower in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis, and iodine replacement may be important in preventing osteoporosis"  Body iodine status in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis Low iodine can cause thyroid problems, but Iodine deficiency will not show up in thyroid tests.  Iodine is important for healing, its job is to kill off defective and aging cells (Apoptosis). Skin, brain fog, nails, muscle tone all inproved when I started taking 600 mcg (RDA 150 - 1000 mcg) of Liquid Iodine drops. Some with dermatitis herpetiformis, Iodine exacerbates the rash.  I started at 1 drop (50 mcg) and worked up to 12 drops, but I don't have dermatitis herpetiformis.
